Default Anyone ever use Plasti Dip???

Spray on latex rubber, matte finish available in all kinds of colors. Supposed to be easy to use and durable but will peel off if you mess up of change your mind on whether you like it.

I was thinking of using it on some truck and trailer stuff but figured I would ask if anyone has experience with it before spending time and money on it.

My brother used it on all of the emblems on his 350Z and he told me that he liked it. I have no personal experience with it though.

I just did a box truck with it. Easy to use, pretty durable and looks pretty decent. First coat should be sprayed pretty light so it doesn't run but after just keep layering. Buy a few cans at Home Depot to try it out first.

I used it on an old anchor a few years back. It did peel off after a while. I didn't really spend much time preping the surface, so that probably contributed to that. It should peel off if you change your mind.

I used it on some tools about 15 years ago. It started to work loose and peel after a year or so.
